Would this work?

Dim sMyCookie
sMyCookie = Request.Cookies("MyCookie").Value

>>I'm trying to store information in such a way that a client side activeX can use the information. I have information in tables. One Table is Activities. It has a field called Alarm_Status. I need the date and time stored in alarm status to be accessible to the client side activeX alarm control.

>>I was thinking that I could store the alarm_status into cookies to be accessed by the client side control. When I put the following code into my the Page_Load of my Code Behind stuff, it complains...
